  1. The 38th KSCCM Annual Congress and Acute Critical Care Conference 2019 DecompressiveCraniectomy(DC) in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury(TBI) Lee Sang Koo, MD, PhD Dankook University Hospital The K-Hotel Apr 26, 2019

  2. Introduction Traumatic brain injury(TBI) - Major public health problem ICP elevation d/t mass effect from hematoma/contusion/swelling… Ischemia d/t reduction of cerebral perfusion pressure(CPP) Decompressivecraniectomy(DC) - Removal of large part of the un-expandable skull - Opening of the dura or not Physiological viewpoints - Helps to overcomerigid and non-compliantnature of skull/dura mater - Reduction of ICP

  3. History • B.C 4000 Ancient Incas trephined the skull • Kocher(1901) first proposed DC as surgical decompression in post-traumatic brain swelling • Cushing(1905) Ranshoff(1971) Kjellberg(1971) subtemporal CE hemicraniectomybifrontal CE Miyazaki(1973) Guerra(1999) total calvariectomy bilateral F-T-P craniectomy

  4. Mortality in TBI J Neurotrauma 2010

  5. DC in MCA stroke

  6. DC for MCA infarct vs. TBI J Clinic Neuroscience 2016

  7. Controversial Issues on DC • Decompressive craniectomy in trauma unlike in stroke remains controversial • Animal study; cerebral edema /hemorrhagic infarct /cortical necrosis • Decreased ICP improved CPP/ increased O2 tension • There are no class I evidences on DC and outcomes • Surgical methods are variable but rare comparative studies. • DC have chances of complications.

  8. No Standardized Methods of DC vs. • Sub-temporal decompression; skull beneath the temporal m. • Circular decompression; limited space but helpful • Fronto-temporal or temporo-parietal DC • Large fronto-temporo-parietal DC • Improved outcome than routine craniectomy • Hemispherecraniectomy • Bifrontal CE in diffuse TBI(Polin technique) • ant.roof of orbit / 3-5cm behind coronal S. / temporal base • anterior falxdivision or not / sagittal sinus ligation or division

  9. Additional Methods of DC • Tucci flap by Keith Tucci (2006) • Cranial defect with risk of injury to decrease cortical perfusion • Leave the bone flap in position • One side secured and plate serving as “hinge” • Float skull during intracranial hypertension • CE c removal of temporalis muscle by Zhang et al • Resect the temporalis m. above inf. edge of bone window • Average additional space26.5cm3

  10. Dura open or Not • Dura open; increase the risk of secondary surgical complication • Herniation through the craniectomy defect • Epilepsy • Intracranial infection • CSF leakage • Loose closure of dura • Expansion of edematous dura into durotomy “bag” • Closed scalp without restriction ** Ventricular ICP gain by monitoring [Yoo et al (1999)] bilateral craniectomy 50.2 ± 16.6% duraplasty 15.7 ± 16.5% • DC alone without durotomy; reduce ICP 15% Duraplasty; reduce additional ICP 55% (Schmidek H 2006)

  11. Technical Considerations • 2 main methods of duralaugumentationc duroplasty • Dura is enlarged by pt’s own tissue; temporalis fascia temporalis muscle galeaaponeurotica • Artificial durasubstitute or bovine pericardium • Dural incisions • Stellate fashion; preservation of vessels in dura “vascular tunnel” avoid ischemia • Lattice fashion by Mitchell et al made a series of dural incisions(2cm long 1cm intervals) allow it to stretch and expand

  12. Size of Craniectomy • Correlated with degree of expansion • - Small CE; infarction & hemorrhage around craniectomy margin • * Doubling diameter; 6 12cm, increasing volume 9 86ml • - Large CE; decompression of basal cistern & minimize brainstem comp. • * Out-fracture of middle cranial fossa is important • ** CE range of 10x15cm + lower margin ~ 1cm from floor of MCF

  13. Compare the effect of standard trauma craniectomy(STC) group vs. • limited craniectomy (LC) group • 5 Chinese centers of 486 patients • 241 pts unilateral frontotemporoparietal bone flap (12 x 15cm) • 245 pts routine temporoparietal bone flap (6 x 8cm)

  14. Complications More than 50% chances of complications related to this Margined contusion Extracranial herniation Epilepsy CSF leakage Subdural effusion Hydrocephlaus Syndrome of trephined Infection…

  15. Evidences before the RCT trials Still few randomized trials Few evidences to support the routine use of 2nd DC to reduce favourable outcomes in adults with severe TBI and refractory high ICP No randomized historical controls May be empirically useful when maximal medical management has failed to control ICP

  16. Evidence-Based Medicine Pyramid

  17. Systematic Review or Meta-analysis

  23. Randomized Controlled Trials(RCT’s)DECRA trialRESCUEicp trial STITCH trial RESCUE_ADH trial

  24. RCT for DC in TBI ICP/outcome ICP/ICU stay Mortality Complications

  25. Definitions • Primary DC; large part of skull(bone flap) out after evacuating hematoma in early phase after head injury • Secondary DC; DC undertaken pts who managed in ICU with ICP monitoring  as a part of tiered therapeutic protocols life-saving Tx aim to control ICP(<25mmHg) and CPP

  27. I. DECRA trial(Australia group) • 2002-2010 in Australia, New Zealand and Saudi Arabia 155 pts with diffuse TBI

  28. The DECRA trial, an RCT that compared bifrontotemporoparietal DC to initial medical management for refractory raised ICP, recruited patients in 15 tertiary care hospitals in Australia, New Zealand, and Saudi Arabia between December 2002 and April 2010

  29. II. RESCUEicp Trial(Cambridge group) ** Large sample; 400 pts Ended on 31 Mar 2014 and followed up Primary end points in 2016

  30. Published Article NEJM, 2016

  31. Values in RESCUEicp

  32. DECRA vs. RESCUEicp T-ICH excluded included

  33. III. STITCH(Surgical Trial in T-ICH) • Mendelow et al in 2015 -multi-center, randomized, parallel group trial -hematoma evacuation within 12 hours vs. conservative Tx - randomized within 48hours of TBI/T-ICH 10cc - GOS at 6mo • Results - total 170 pts were randomized, 31/59 center world-wide - 82 pts with complete f-up after initial conservative Tx. To surgery 40/82 pts unfavorable outcome Absolute benefit of 10.5% • Limitations - small sample size premature termination

  34. IV. RESCUE-ASDH trial • Miller et al; 2/3 of 48 pts with evacuation of ASDHhave raised ICP in post-operative periods  Half of the pts with raised ICP leading herniation & death  still showing higher mortality • Willberg et al; 40% of 101 comatose pts underwent craniectomymaintaining ICP<20mmHg  43% of pts have raising uncontrollable ICP • DC vs craniotomy; retrospective cohort study of 91pts operated ASDH  morbidity 0.75(DC) < 0.90(craniotomy)

  35. RESCUE-ASDH • Inclusion Criteria Adult head injured patients(>16 years) ASDH onCT scan Surgeons feels that hematoma needs to evacuated (craniotomy or DC; bone flap at least 11cm) • Exclusion criteria Bilateral ASDH Prev. enrolled RESCUEicp study Severe pre-existing physical or mental disability

  36. RESCUE-ASDH • The primary outcome Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale(GOSE) at 12mo post-injury • The secondary outcome GOSE at 6 months QOL(EQ-5D) at discharge from the ICU/from NS ward Length of stay in ICU Serious adverse events and surgical complications Re-admission within 1-yr F-up Re-operating within 2 weeksafter randomization Incidence of hydrocephalus Therapy intensity levels//Economic evaluation

  37. RESCUE-ASDH • Analysis “intention-to-treat” basis with proportional odds model ~35% in favorable outcome in surgical evacuation of ASDH Sample size of 990 pts(495 each arm; 10% drop out) 8% absolute difference in favorable outcome(90%, 2-SD <0.05) • Internal pilot study in UK started in Autumn 2014 1yr recruitment 64 pts from 15 UK sites 57 pts observational study cohort 21 centers are now open in UK http://www.rescueasdh.org/contact-us (further information)

  41. Changes from 3rd to 4th ed. **28 evidence-based recommendations 14 new 14 not changed

  42. Treatment Guidelines 1. DecompressiveCraniectomy(new) 2. Prophylactic Hypothermia 3. Hyperosmolar Therapy 4. Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage (new) 5. Ventilation Therapies (←hyperventilation) 6.

  43. DecompressiveCraniectomy --New • Recommendations • Level I – insufficient evidence • Level IIA • (1) Bi-frontal DC • * Diffuse injury(without mass lesion) • ** ICP >20 mmHg // >15minfor 1 hournon responder to 1st tier Tx. •  Not recommend to improve 6mo-GOSE •  lower ICP // lower ICU stay • (2) Large F-T-P DC; • less than 12 x 15 cm or 15 cm diameter •  larger flap can reduce mortality&improve neurologic outcome  As theresults of the DECRA trial

  44. Guidelines from Extracted Evidences

  45. Summary • Evidence guided decompressivecraniectomy for TBI is still challenging • Systematic reviews or meta-analysis showed Standard craniectomy > limited craniectomy(level 2) Large bone flap; ICP reduction+betteroutcome+fewCx(level 3) 3. Large randomized controlled trials mentioned that DECRA;gain on ICP control + ICU stays but no functional gain RESCUEicp;lowerICP + decrease mortality/high morbidity rate STITCH; high unfavorable outcome / absolute benefit 10.5% RESCUEASDH; Primary DC for pts with ASDH is being evaluated

  46. Conclusion 21st century has been marked by efforts to develop evidence base for DC following TBI Current evidence suggests 1. Early (neuroprotective) bi-frontal DC is not superior to medical Tx in diffuse TBI 2. Secondary DC as a last-tier therapy for severe & refractory high ICP is subject of the RESCUEicp study 3. Primary DC for pts with ASDH is being systemically evaluated in the context of the RESCUE-ASDH trial In the view of evidence, number of complications with DC  indiscriminate use of DC for TBI is not appropriate
